To complete this assignment, each student is given $25,000.00 in fictitious money to invest in three different companies. The three companies chosen are to be tracked during a three-week period. This project is completed virtually, so there is no risk of losing any real money. Each person is recommended to keep a journal of their activities, history of all buys, sells, to keep track of current portfolios' market value and cash in the account. Students are encouraged to buy low, sell high, and show profits or losses from each company investment in the end of the three-week tracking period. Below is the example of the Report and suggested tools to use to track the stock (daily tracking is not required). ( Give Three Stocks)
